Moritat (mack The Knife) (from Quiz Show) Lyrics - Lyle Lovett

See the shark with 

Teeth like razors 

You can read his 

Open face 

Then Mackheath he's got a knife but, 

Not in such an 

Obvious place 

On a beautiful 

Blue Sunday 

See a corpse 

Stretched in the Strand 

See a man dodged 

Round the corner 

Mackie's friends would understand 

Mister Mayer, reported missing 

like so many wealthy men 

Mack the knife acquired his cash but 

God alone knows, how or when 

Jenny Towler 

She turned up lately 

With a knife stuck 

Through her breast 

While Mackheath he, 

Walks the embankment 

Nonchalantly, unimpressed 

And the ghastly 

Fire in Soho 

Seven children 

At a go 

In the crowd stands Mack the Knife, but 

He isn't asked 

He doesn't know 

And the child bride 

In her night gown 

Whose assailant's 

Still at large 

Violated in her slumber 

Mackie how much did you charge? 

yes the child bride 

In her night gown 

her assailant's 

Still at large 

Violated in her slumber 

Mackie how much did you charge? 

Mackie how much did you charge? 

How much did you charge? 

How much did you charge? 

How much did you charge? 

How much did you charge?
